Domaine Ponsot, Chambertin Vintage:2002 The 2014 Barolo le Vigne

The 2014 Barolo le Vigne is bright and fruit-forward

fully penetrates beyond mere "flavor experience" and dives deep into the senses

satiny and rich white that’s broad and enveloping with a fleshy core of fruit

The dryness should round out in time as there is no associated sense of astringency

pear and jasmine

Domaine Ponsot, Chambertin Vintage:2002 The 2014 Barolo le Vignefrom a tiny . 15 ha parcel of vines planted in 1961. Complex and wild red fruit aromas with plenty of earth, game and roasted coffee notes merge into tight, nicely pure, sappy and extremely intense flavors that are not especially concentrated but do offer exceptional persistence, all supported by refined and ripe tannins. This is the best Ponsot Chambertin in some years.
